Reply To: Does “Chasidish” refer to both Satmar and Lubavitch?

@Syag,
Not sure why you think I wouldn’t post that. I went to a Lubavitch primary school in South Africa in the 80s. But about your point about your neighbours, I wouldn’t know the specifics, but all sorts of people have rules about whom their children play with.
Another point, here in Manchester, many Lubavitchers mix with the general Litvishe/Chassidishe crowd. Most Ashkenaz & Sfard shuls have a few Tehillas Hashem siddurim available because Lubavitchers come to daven often enough. Chabad kids come on Pirchim chol hamoed outings, as well as non-Chabad kids go to Gan Yisroel camps. By no means all, but it’s not total separation.
One of the most popular public speakers here is a Lubavitcher Rov, and the Lubavitch Rabonim and mashpi’im speak in other shuls.
